January 28 marks the first meeting of the Carnival at the new Meydan
Grandstand and Racecourse and will culminate with the 15th Dubai World Cup on
March 27.

Showcasing a countdown timer, racing calendar and programme for the
Carnival, information on ticketing and dining are available on the website,
including rates for general admissions, packages, banqueting and corporate
entertainment at the Meydan Grandstand Suites. The site also premieres a new
secure and user-friendly booking engine and payment gateway to facilitate
consumers who wish to enjoy a night at the races at one of the several dining
establishments in Meydan.

Horsemen including owners, trainers and jockeys, will also have quick and
easy access to crucial information, including details about rules and
regulations, application forms, quarantine and vaccination, transport,
subsidies and incentives, weight for age, international agents and track
surfaces.

For all media representatives, the Media Centre will also be the
essential resource portal for all news, videos and photographs related to the
Carnival.

The new DRC website will enable essential information such as race cards,
form guides and results to be pulled real-time via the Emirates Racing
Authority (ERA) website. ERA is the internationally recognised governing body
for horse racing in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

"The new Dubai Racing Club website is pivotal in how informative it is
and how it captures the passion and excitement behind the upcoming racing
season at Meydan. It also completes the customer experience for all those who
wish to attend the Dubai International Racing Carnival and we are pleased
with how it also champions horseracing globally.

"We are also always in the process of continually upgrading our value and
service offerings to empower our partners and customers, thereby ensuring
that they are exposed to global best practices and services that technology
can empower us to offer," said Chairman of the Board and CEO of Meydan Mr.
Saeed Humaid Al-Tayer.
